Thursday’s Futures Setups
The
Dow gained 28 to 7552, the Nasdaq
rose 7 to 1279, and the S&P 500 added 3 to 804. A rumor that Bin Laden
was captured made for early volatility. We’re in an oversold condition in the
indices, with CVR signals setting up. The UN votes tomorrow.

Please
note that while there are strong trends, one bar or a series of bars forming a
setup can sometimes indicate a contra move for the next day. This contra move
may not be long-lasting — maybe only for a day or two. Trading with the main
trend is always the highest probability trade. Be
advised that some futures contracts are prone to gaps.
Remember,
use stops on all your trades.
